About

Founded in 2012, by Ron and Cathy King, Rock Forward was formed after an exploratory trip to Zimbabwe, Africa, and a deep passion to be in relationship with the African people. Ron and Cathy began a relationship with a young screen printer named Rob Simupindi. He is a screen printer with a heart to train other widows in a trade resulting in the ability to feed their hungry children and other orphans.Since then, an incredible mentoring relationship flourished and the format for mentoring grass roots businesses began, bringing hope and empowerment to the hopeless people and the country of Zimbabwe. Rock Forward is mentoring in the agricultural arena, the textile and soap business, technology and small grass roots ideas and creative businesses. We are heavily involved in the education and feeding of children through an early childhood development program called NHAKA. We are now working on the sustainability of this foundation. Sustainability and a strong walk with God, is our thrust and goal of each relationship that we work with. VisionWe are dedicated to creating sustainable economic development in Africa and specifically in Zimbabwe.MissionWe are Christ Followers, committed to empowering the African people in their walk of faith, to create long term growth and stability in business and community relationships, so as to increase the opportunities for success. We are helping to light His way forward.
